Chapter 1: How can you identify reliable conservative candidates before elections?
Good morning, sir. I have a question regarding the Phyllis topic. How do we identify candidates that are true to their word? you know, when they run for office, when they're in office, because they're starting to show themselves that they're not really who they are.
Without a doubt. And so the Tom Tillis case is so frustrating because he uses our need to hold on to the North Carolina Senate seat against us. A valuable tell is it's good to have people with a real state level record. rarely do they have a good state-level record, and then they become a complete disaster in D.C. It does happen, but rarely.
Let's take a senator that isn't talked about enough, and he comes on our program, Senator Eric Schmidt from Missouri. He was phenomenal. He was the former attorney general of Missouri. He had a great state-level record, and he's ended up to be a fabulous U.S. senator. Let's take Senator Rick Scott, who comes on this program quite a lot. He was a great governor of Florida.
He ends up being a great United States senator. It's when they kind of come from unknown places or their state-level record is not as good. I would also say you could tell a lot based on the types of folks that are praising, raising, and contributing. What do I mean by that? They're praising the person.
So, for example, if it's the Karl Rove, Paul Ryan wing of the party that is praising the candidate, whoo. Also, who is raising money for the candidate? Who's hosting fundraisers? Who is trying to raise support? Tom Tillis is supported by all of the ruling class elite. Tom Tillis has always been supported by the neoconservatives, by the Romney wing of the Republican Party.
And then finally, who is actually donating the money itself, not just raising it? And again, Tom Tillis is not widely supported by the grassroots. I will say this, though. One of the structural problems, and we've talked about this repeatedly on this program, and I do not know a solution to this. Rarely do I present wide-ranging problems without a solution. I don't know...
how to get the conservative grassroots, such as all of you, more serious about giving small dollar donations to candidates. Now, we've covered this before, and I will reiterate this, and this drives me insane. Just literally in the last hour, this is, again, this is at freedom at charliekirk.com. I got this at-risk, your 5K doge check from some pack that I never gave money to.
Mike, I love Mike Lee. New update. Urgent Save Act update. It's not dead. Click here for an urgent update. Or Donald J. Trump here. Charlie, is that you? I'm trying to get your attention. Tom Cotton, if Democrats flip my seat. Again, this is malpractice. Can I put this up on screen? Again, I'm not trying to pick on Tom Cotton too much. I think he's been totally wrong on so much stuff.
I got to put this up on screen. Tom Cotton is not going to lose his Arkansas Senate seat. It is not going to happen, okay? And so here he is raising money from me. If Democrats flip my Senate seat in Arkansas, we can say goodbye to Republican Senate majority. Listen, Tom, if you lose your Senate seat in Arkansas, we're losing like 20 Senate seats. OK, let's just be very clear.

Chapter 2: What factors influence funding and support for political candidates?
Chapter 3: Can the naturalization oath help reduce immigration of those hostile to American values?
When you have too much mass migration, Islam is incompatible with freedom of speech. It is. Islam does not have a robust marketplace of ideas. You can say whatever you want about me. You can call me whatever name you want. You cannot have unlimited freedom of speech and Muhammadism. It does not exist. Period. And finally, let me play this. This is 462.
Remember, we did a whole program on this, and I got a lot of emails about it. But I will stay morally clear and consistent about how Muhammadism is trying to infect and go into the West. I feel as if we in the conservative movement are ignoring this. We're acting as if like, oh, the Islamic countries are really based. Like, hold on. Come on. Stop it.
This is the Islamic, if you did not know about this, these are the Islamic developers of the so-called epic city. Remember the East Plano Islamic Center? They snicker and brag to each other about how their planned village community will have streets named after Muslim conquerors and 75% of the HOA fees go to support the local mosque as a way to keep non-Muslims out.
This, of course, is the next step in the invasion. So I'm about to play 462. And before I do, though, I just have to repeat one more point here, which is I sat down with a couple from Dallas right near Plano. They live in North Dallas, so it's like 20 minutes from Plano. They had no idea this was happening. They said, what do you mean there's a Muslim city being planned? No clue.
It was happening locally, and they had no idea. This is 462. This is how they take over the West. Islam is a conquering ideology. It is an enveloping strategy. Politics and Islam are one in the same. They are called to take over governments. They're called to enforce and implement. Play cut 462.
So we're still debating on the name, but it's going to be something Muslim name and a village attached to it, right? The names of the streets, Khalid ibn al-Walid, Tariq ibn Ziyad, all the great conquerors. People need to Google those conquerors. And then we want to have different sections like Andalusia, this, that, like all our... Past glories. And we want to bring it back.
The way what we're doing, brother, like you cannot make it exclusive, like non-Muslims not allowed, Kuffar not allowed. What we're doing, there's something called association fee. I don't know what it's called in Dubai. Like your maintenance fee that you pay yearly, like service fee. to cut the grass, to remove the snow and whatnot.
So that service fee will put there 75% of the service fee you're paying goes to the masjid. Brother, we're putting an application now where we're selecting the names of the streets in the United States of America.
They are laughing and bragging how they're using our own laws against it. That's in East Plano. That is not in Birmingham, UK. That is not in Munich. That is not in Dublin. That is in Plano. How they're bragging and laughing. They mention an area of their town named Andalusia. That's a name from Spain when it was ruled by Muslims. It's a name aspiring to conquest.

Chapter 4: Is Islam (Mohammedanism) compatible with U.S. citizenship and Western values?
And notably in the West, we actually admit the most extreme Muslims in many cases. Pakistanis will tell you that Pakistanis who moved to the United Kingdom in America are the most backward, the most fundamentalist ones, the least reformed. And Epic City will give them a foothold. And we're all just kind of looking at it saying, oh, you know, wow, that's really great. Religious freedom.
I would make a provocative argument. When the founding fathers talked about religious liberty, I don't think that they wanted to see Muhammadism, Islamic Sharia law cities on the turf of America. It's coming to your neighborhood. Mass migration. You invade the world, invite the world. It is an assault on Western civilization. And they're bragging about it. They're snickering about it. It's coming.

Same idea, same concept, same worldview, same attitude, same smugness, same. The reason I had Blake checked, I said, wait a second, they're talking about removing snow and doesn't sound like Plano. Same template. It all still applies in Warren, Michigan, in Warren, Michigan. Email us, as always, freedom at charliekirk.com and subscribe to our podcast. Okay, we took a little detour there.
That was definitely warranted. Let's go to Dawn. Dawn, thank you for being a member. What's on your mind?
Hey, Charlie. I have kids who are homeschooled. It is 11. And we're in D.C. in October. And it's the first time for my husband and me since eighth grade. So we're excited, but I'm waiting on what or something happens. I feel like our must do while we're there. We're going to be there. I'm trying to squeeze in.
Great. So you're cutting in and out a little bit, but I do have your question here. Let me repeat it for the audience. Your homeschooling family, you're taking your four kids to D.C. along with two other kids. They're in middle school and high school age. Be there for seven days. What do you recommend is must see while you are there? OK, so first of all, the Capitol Rotunda.
It's amazingly the first time I ever was inside the Capitol Rotunda was for the inauguration of President Trump. It's pretty amazing. I've been to D.C. so many times for a decade. It was the first time I actually got to see that. You're going at the right time of year. So the National Portrait Gallery is really great. It's a mixture of art and American history.

Chapter 5: What are the differences between the threats of Mohammedanism and Marxism to the West?
And one that people might not have actually plugged for you, Dawn, which is the Museum of the Bible. The Museum of the Bible is right there. It is gorgeous. The Green family did a wonderful job with it. And I really encourage you guys to go check it out. By the way, the Constitution is in the National Archives. So that's just some of the sites that I really encourage you guys to see.
And by the way, I'm so glad you are homeschooling your children. I would also say something they'll never forget is going to the Arlington Cemetery in Northern Virginia for the Changing of the Guard event. It is overwhelming to see all of the crosses at Arlington Cemetery of all the people who died for our country, for our liberty. It's very humbling. It's very sobering.
So those would just be some of my immediate ones. Okay, Dawn, thank you for homeschooling your kids. Have a great time. Let us know how it goes, okay? Thank you. All right. Great. Nicholas, thank you for being a member at members.charliekirk.com. What's on your mind?
Hey, so I was wondering about the India-Pakistan conflict. I was wondering if you had an opinion on what America should be doing, whether they should get into it at all or whether we should be taking in refugees or not. Just basically your whole opinion on the best course of action.
We should stay out completely. We should stay completely and totally out. We should stay out of the conflict. Again, I always show this video here of the high stepping. Um, look, if it gets to the place of nuclear, you know, nuclear weapons, we should try to mediate. We should always be involved in brokering peace, but no weapons, none of that stuff. We should try to diffuse the conflict.
We're not going to send troops and I can ascend armaments. This is an old, old, old conflict. And people are going to get mad if I say this. Pakistan's largely to be at fault here. I'm sorry. It's just the way it is. I don't mean to get into the details, but let them fight it out if they want. I hate to see war. War is terrible.
I actually don't think it will be nuclear weapons because I think nuclear weapons, but both sides have nuclear weapons, both Pakistan and India, so I don't think it will come to that. This could not be further from our responsibility. This is the opposite of our scope. Don't get involved. Don't set weapons. Resist any temptation to do so.
One more thing. One more thing. Do you think this could affect the trade deal in any way if it escalates or is it just completely not there?
Potentially, yeah. I mean, look, again, I think that India is a much more important partner for us than Pakistan. Let's just be very honest. India might want to build up a relationship with us, actually. So if anything would actually make us sweeten the trade deal, it might make it more urgent. Again, the solution to a lot of things, China, is India. India is much more of a value system like ours.

Chapter 6: What is the significance of the planned Muslim community in Plano, Texas?
And So having kids makes you even more conservative. Having Turning Point USA and running Turning Point USA, I want to conserve it. We want to protect the best. We want to protect the best of all things. We as conservatives want you actually to embrace a harder, meaningful life, not one of just ease and comfort. There's a lot that divides the liberals and conservatives.
Deep down, libs want an easy life and they want to be lazy. There's not every lib, but a lot of libs. Basically, they're always complaining that they have to work. What an awful existence if you don't have to work. Now, work should not be everything. You should rest for an entire day of the week. But imagine a life without struggle. What is the purpose of all that?
You want to try to leave the next generation off. You want to try to hand something better. It was in a certain circumstance and we improved it. And then, yes, of course, faith. Make your relationship with God, with Jesus, your top priority. So I hope that helps. Thank you. Really appreciate it.

Hey, so hold on, let me put this up really quick. So, hey, Charlie, I ran for student government president at UCF this past semester. I was very openly a MAGA conservative during this race. And so that was met with a lot of intense backlash. I faced over like 10 death threats. election interference hearings that got me disqualified.
And the Republican Party Club at the UCF University endorsed the liberal candidate who advocated for DEI policies. And that candidate ended up winning. They disqualified me while votes were still being counted. And I couldn't campaign for over half of the month that the campaign that was basically the time that was set to campaign.
What can I do to get the story out there so this doesn't happen to anyone else?
Well, we would love to help get that story out there. And what you're illustrating is unfortunately very normal. Yeah, our students get death threats all the time. Our Turning Point USA students are under constant threat of retaliation and reprisal. So nothing new there. But yes, to your point, To your point, we'd be happy to work with you at Turning Point USA and help get that story out.
